I like how the New Commander mod has decided to buff Ost units, try to improve some Soviet core ones, and then out of the freaking blue has nerfed the universal carrier of all units.

Nothing else for brits. Barely touched the commander itself. Just slap out a nerf on a core unit.

UKF sniper could be given the same ready aim time as the ost and sov sniper to make countersniping easier, imo.

I don't put much stock in the countersniper as a valid way to compensate.

The aim and cloak times could be brought in line, sure, but that doesn't address the fundemental weakness of brit early game to snipers. Their AEC arrives late, UCs lack chasing power (and are getting a nerf to boot), and they have the worst early game unit choice to face them down.

Brit sections are the most expensive mainline
Brit sections are reliant on remaining stationary in cover to fight well
Brit sections have abysmal moving accuracy

Brits do not start with a capping engineer squad
Brits have to tech up to even be able to buy a cheap capping squad
Brits can't buy an early mortar for indirect and smoke
Brits can't get smoke at all without teching and buying grenades or teching and building a stationary pit


The AEC is now more expensive per unit. You cannot afford to lose one as you can a scout car


Countersniping effectively relies on luring in an enemny sniper before yours first fires. But brit map presence with a passive sniper facing an ost sniper in the early game is so pathetically low that you'll be fuel starved and removed by LVs even if you try.

It happened in the alpha. Bolster was the response.

Brits still have to pay more for base healing than Ost or Soviet. They still need to tech up and buy a specific squad for the right to be able to even build it. They still need to spend half an age building the thing keeping that one squad out of combat for a long time.

Their base healing is the worst, their squad healing is the best, and if your opponent buys nothing but medic sections they are losing out on a huge potential source of vision and some mediocre arty potential.

Not a problem, doesn't need 'fixing'. If you want to make it worse, like so many other things with the brits, the rest of their faction design is going to have to be overhualed to compensate.

Im 99% certain it does fix the engine no matter what.

If it is meant to, I have seen it bug out, and been left wkth engine damage.

Heh, it would be nice after three years to have Bofors fixed to actually kill aircraft.

But apparently shaving off a few more nerfs in an already underused and anaemic unit is more important

For sure! Gotta make sure snares 'trade fairly'

While the UK are still unique in starting without an engineer squad and without vehicle crews that do it free

And the snare still does damage and engine crits which prevent the UC chasing anything and take it out of the fight to self repair

And Panzer Tactitian still costs less than Button

Good to know this is their priority, and not the 0 damage to planes Bofors!
